Only Black Male at Venue....

Male
Real Person
Just left a local brewery in Atlanta where I was LITERALLY the only black guy in the venue.
I'm rarely uncomfortable in settings like this because I'm a strong willed black man and wear my ethnicity as a badge of honor. (In other words, if you are uncomfortable with my skin, that's your problem lol)
But as I sat there I wondered "What do white people think of me as I sit here casually enjoying this craft lager?" Not just that but as I saw DOZENS of white couples together, I wondered "What would they think if I approached them and struck up a conversation with the intentions of fucking their wife?" Would you as a white woman, make an advance to a black man in a setting like this? Just my thoughts...

I have before and would again if someone caught my eye
 
A guy came up to me while I was on vacation in the Bahamas and was super polite and a wonderful conversationalist. It took him a few days, but he was my first Black. Strongly suggest you just talk to folks, you may be surprised. Nothing ventured, nothing gained - and I speak from experience as the one being hit on!

Good luck!

Thanks for the insight and perspective. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained"... I like that!

We would think you're a guy who enjoys good beer.

I've encountered this a few times times here in Austin, as it is a very 'craft' city... Craft breweries aren't exactly the place that Brothas hang out at lol
But if you're like me you have enough white friends and find yourself in situations where you are the Only One.
That being said, I consider myself a Man of the People, A Citizen of the World so I agree with you, comfortable in your own skin, wherever you may be. But it is interesting to observe how OTHERS respond to our presence ??

Absolutely! I've noticed that the response is either one of avoidance or one of intrigue.

Example: The Chick-fil-A bowl (Alabama vs. Duke) was played today and last night there was a larger than usual "Bama" prescence at the brewery. As I went to the bar, there was a table of like 4-5 blonde white women around mid 30's-early 40's, mostly all wearing rings, that nervously made eye contact with me with slight half smiles. Almost to say "Damn...he's cute but I can't let my other girls know that I'm thinking it." As usual, I simply smiled back. Lol
Another dude walked in shortly afterwards with his gf (white chick with short blonde hair and a MEAN body on her), they both looked my direction but she looked a little harder and we locked eyes. In my head I was thinking "Girl dont fuck around with me...I'll take you home tonight and change your life!"

Yep I would and I have.
 
Speaking for myself (and from experience) I would tend to avoid groups of single women as you are right, they tend to circle the wagons and unless there is a way to break them apart (a number of men, dancing, etc) they are reluctant.

In our case, we were approached as a couple. That actually may be more successful for you. No peer pressure as the husband is attune to the wife and vice-versa.

Just something to consider.

Also, something else to consider - engage with the husband first! That's what happened with us and I think (don't know, I'm not a mind-reader!) that it had the effect of disarming both of us. The situation being that a guy was talking to a guy about guy things. Other stuff came later.

100% agree.
 
Try being a black man that both played and enjoys watching hockey? Even in the northeast it's still an odd thing. Once you get past the shallow idiots (especially if you can knock the ******* out of them) it's all good. If it's something you are into, it's who you are. Do what is you man. Be comfortable with what you are.
